4. Stiùireadh Obrachaidh

4.1 Sioncronachadh Solais ARGB

The G24 PC Fans support ARGB lighting synchronization with compatible motherboards. Connect the ARGB cables from the fans to your motherboard's 3-pin 5V ARGB header. Use your motherboard's software (e.g., ASUS Aura Sync, MSI Mystic Light Sync, ASRock Polychrome Sync) to customize lighting effects and colors.

4.2 Smachd Astar Luchd-leantainn (PWM)

The PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) fans allow for dynamic speed control based on system temperature. Connect the fan PWM cables to your motherboard's 4-pin fan headers. Fan speed can be managed through your motherboard's BIOS settings or dedicated fan control software.

5. Cumail suas

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your PC case and components.

  • Glanadh sìoltachan duslach: The DS900 features a magnetic top dust filter and other panel filters. Periodically remove and clean these filters to prevent dust buildup inside the case, which can impede airflow and component cooling. Use compressed air or a soft brush.
  • Glanadh cùise: Wipe down the exterior and tempered glass panels with a soft, lint-free cloth. For stubborn smudges on glass, a mild glass cleaner can be used, applied to the cloth first, not directly to the glass.
  • Glanadh luchd-leantainn: Gently clean fan blades with compressed air or a soft brush to remove dust. Ensure fans are not spinning during cleaning.
